Abstract
Introduction. This article is the result of a researchcreation
work that aims to de-contextualize the body
of the transvestites as they are seen by a society that
hides them, as it happens in Manizales. This genetates
an aesthetic invisibility, due to the moral taboos
related to this particular issue .Objective. The idea
is to take them to another context, in order to make
them visible. In this case they context is a museum,
by means of an art work, because the artist –especially
the one dedicated to paint- cannot just make
do with the “reductionist, trascendentalist and reality
representative” ways. Materials and methods.
The construction of a corpus as aesthetic and visual
consciousness in the research-creation process
conceived at Calle de las Guapas, in Manizales,
has, as a conceptual reference, the corpus of Nancy,
also based on the implementation of Deleuze´s
logic of sensation-impression .Results. An aesthetic
and plastic body of work was genereated, and it demonstrated
the creative process developed to make
transvestites from Calle de las Guapas, visible. At the same time. The artistic and cultural patrimony
of Universidad de Caldas was optimally increased
.Conclusions. The images are intended for the
viewers to re-construct the corpus proposed by the
artist: exposed body, cracked body, aesthetic body.
Therefore, the whole plastic work is proposed as an
unlimited digression of “visual fragments”, a hatching
of an experience field in which what is unsystematic
and de-contextualized are subjected to the open
and multiple observation by the others, who can also
act as aesthetic re-configurators. Likewise, from the
creative side of things we use aesthetic codes in order
to achieve the interaction in the contemporary
artistic practice referred to narrative possibilities,
creating, from there, an imaginary world of the culture
that allowed the assumption of reality as a device
for the creation and re-signification of image.
